Washington, DC local residents and environmentalists gathered at a meeting room in a Methodist Church on Capitol Hill last Thursday to discuss their dissatisfaction with the Capitol Hill cogeneration plant.
The plant, which was completely coal fired for almost one hundred years, exclusively heats the capitol. However, since 2007, according to the Architect of the Capitol (AOC), the plant began to move from burning primarily coal to burning mostly natural gas–but not entirely. Coal is still burned at the plant, but the rate of its reduction is not fast enough for local environmentalists and lawmakers.
In March of 2009, anti-coal protesters blocked the gates of the nearly century old Capitol Power Plant for nearly four hours. No one was arrested. By May of that year, then Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D – CA) and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D – NV) announced that the plant would switch over to natural gas as its sole energy source. The promise was made in large part as an effort from Democrats to limit carbon emissions in the nation's capitol.

Local educator to receive national human and civil rights award
WASHINGTON - June 23, 2009 -
Alyssa Liana Tomé-Estornell will receive the National Education Association's George I. Sanchez Memorial Award at the Association's annual Human and Civil Rights Awards Dinner in San Diego, Calif., on July 3, 2009.
Estornell, a speech-language pathologist with Florida's Palm Beach County School District, is being honored for her groundbreaking work in educating young children who are bilingual and speech or language impaired.
The Sanchez Memorial Award is presented to an individual whose activities have made significant improvements in educational opportunities and advanced the achievement of equal opportunity for Hispanics.
Working with "ChildFind," a school district program aimed at identifying prekindergarteners with possible speech and language disabilities, has allowed Estornell to hone her craft and gain recognition as a pioneer in educating some the most academically vulnerable students.
Estornell, along with Jose Rafael Lozano-Rodriguez, wrote The Palm Beach Spanish Communicator Screener, a groundbreaking instrument that has helped to reduce the over-identification of Hispanic students in evaluations through the establishment of standardized pass/fail scores. All monolingual speech-language pathologists in the district have been trained by Estornell to administer the screening tool.
Recognizing that such students needed special support, Estornell took part in developing the district's first Spanish immersion intervention program for prekindergarten students. The program affords children the opportunity to develop native language proficiency while overcoming communication barriers to prepare them for dual-language kindergarten and ultimate long-term academic success.
Estornell has also extended the program's outreach to parents and families, initiating an annual "Parent Night" where families bring a typical meal from their native county while learning strategies for bringing speech immersion concepts into the home.
"Alyssa Liana Tomẽ-Estornell's tireless advocacy and innovative work has helped her fellow educators tear down some real barriers to academic success," said NEA President Dennis Van Roekel. "She has created a tremendous tool to help close achievement gaps for these at-risk youngsters."
George I. Sanchez (1906–1972) was an educator, historian and author in the United States, Mexico, Peru and Venezuela. He devoted 50 years of his life to the education of Mexican, Navajo and Black children and is known as the "father" of the movement for quality education for Mexican Americans.

Commentary: Allowing appeals by winners
Last week"™s decision in Camreta v. Greene raises several issues of considerable significance for future constitutional litigation. The case, brought under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, involved a claim that state employees violated the Fourth Amendment by interviewing a nine-year-old girl at her elementary school about allegations that her father had sexually abused her. The Ninth Circuit agreed with the plaintiffs that the government officials had violated the Constitution by failing to obtain a warrant (or parental consent) to conduct the interview, but it then held that the state employees were entitled to qualified immunity because the constitutional right was not clearly established. (Jennifer Clark summarized the opinion last week for the blog.)
The immediate issue raised by Camreta is whether the Court may review a lower court"™s constitutional ruling even when the government officials seeking review prevailed on qualified immunity grounds: technically, the officials (as in this case) are winners, and normally a prevailing party cannot appeal even if it is unhappy with an aspect of the decision. Put another way, courts have traditionally held that the qualified immunity victory insulates the ruling on the constitutional merits from review.
In Camreta, however, a five-Justice majority (Justice Kagan, joined by the Chief Justice and Justices Scalia, Ginsburg, and Alito) held that government officials may, in fact, seek review under such circumstances. The opinion thus put to rest a question that has vexed the Court for some time. In Bunting v. Mellen (2004), for example, Justice Scalia dissented from the denial of certiorari, stating: "[T]he general rule [against appeals by winners] should not apply where a favorable judgment on qualified-immunity grounds would deprive a party of an opportunity to appeal the unfavorable (and often more significant) constitutional determination." If nothing else, Camreta resolves this question as Justice Scalia would have in Bunting, holding that the Court does have the authority to review constitutional determinations regardless of the outcome on qualified immunity.
But Camreta also raises much broader questions about the proper function of qualified immunity as a mechanism for the articulation of constitutional law. The appealability question that Camreta addresses arises as a result of the Court"™s qualified immunity doctrine itself. Over the past three decades, the Court has experimented with various approaches to addressing the merits of constitutional questions in qualified immunity cases. The primary argument in favor of deviating from the usual principle of constitutional avoidance is that merits decisions are necessary to facilitate the development of the law. In Saucier v. Katz, decided in 2001, the Court went so far as to hold that lower courts must decide whether a constitutional violation occurred before determining whether the law was clearly established, such that the government officer was entitled to qualified immunity. Just eight years later, however, the Court reversed course in Pearson v. Callahan, holding that the constitutional-merits-first approach was permitted but not mandatory.
The majority opinion in Camreta reiterated the Court"™s approval of merits-first adjudication in qualified immunity proceedings. In so doing, it stressed that qualified immunity serves as an important vehicle for constitutional law articulation. Writing for the majority, Justice Kagan emphasized that "the two-step sequence [of] defining constitutional rights and only then conferring immunity . . . is sometimes beneficial to clarify the legal standards governing public officials"; by contrast, adhering to the "regular policy of [constitutional] avoidance . . . threatens to leave standards of official conduct permanently in limbo."
But Camreta reveals that the majority"™s view of the value of constitutional articulation is not as secure as three decades"™ worth of precedent would suggest. Although Justice Scalia joined the majority opinion, pronouncing it an accurate statement of the Court"™s qualified immunity precedents, he also for the first time stated explicitly that he would be willing to consider revisiting the merits-first approach. In an "appropriate case," he noted in his concurring opinion, he would consider "end[ing] the extraordinary practice of ruling upon constitutional questions unnecessarily when the defendant possesses qualified immunity." And in his dissent, Justice Kennedy "" joined by Justice Thomas "" similarly criticized the practice of granting lower courts "special permission" to reach the merits in qualified immunity cases. Justice Kennedy"™s current disapproval of the merits-first process is particularly ironic given that only ten years ago he authored Saucier v. Katz, in which the Court held that the merits-first inquiry was not only permissible, but mandatory. Because there is no indication thus far that a majority of the Justices share this view, the merits-first approach remains viable "" for now. Still, the views expressed by Justices Scalia, Kennedy, and Thomas may prompt litigants to take up Justice Scalia"™s invitation to present an "appropriate case" for reconsideration.
In his dissent, Justice Kennedy made two other primary arguments. First, the majority"™s rule regarding the appealability of merits rulings by prevailing parties yields arbitrary results. Justice Kennedy pointed out that the Court would not be able to review a merits determination if the defendant (like James Alford, one of the petitioners in the consolidated cases here) was no longer a government employee, or if the government official is being sued for taking "extraordinary action" in unusual circumstances that are unlikely to recur. However, this concern seems somewhat misplaced, given that defendants"™ circumstances may change (and they may thus decline to pursue an appeal) in any litigation, leaving the articulated legal principles in place and binding other parties, including the government, in future litigation.
Justice Kennedy also contended that, by allowing appeals of merits decisions by government officers who have prevailed on qualified immunity, the majority converts dictum into judgment. In other words, the decision on the constitutional merits "" although permitted under current qualified immunity precedents as a means of guiding future courts "" is unnecessary to the result and therefore dictum. Allowing an appeal of unfavorable dictum thus transforms that dictum into a judgment "" a result that Justice Kennedy characterized as tantamount to a declaratory judgment or an injunction. The majority, for its part, simply disagreed about both the nature of the constitutional pronouncement and the effect of an appeal. It countered that because "a constitutional ruling preparatory to a grant of immunity creates law that governs the official"™s behavior," it is "[n]o mere dictum." For the majority, then, the fact that the constitutional rule is binding in the future is sufficient to allow appeal of the ruling. That appeal does not necessarily render that ruling a "judgment"; it simply means that the party disadvantaged by that ruling may appeal.
Ultimately, however, the result in Camreta did not hinge either on the validity of merits-first adjudication or on the question of whether the government officials who ultimately prevailed could appeal. Rather, the Court disposed of the case on mootness grounds, explaining that the girl on whose behalf the suit was originally brought had moved to a different state and was about to turn eighteen. As a result, she faced no risk of being subjected to the allegedly unconstitutional interview practice in the future. The Court then vacated the Ninth Circuit"™s ruling on the constitutional merits. Although the respondent had argued that vacatur ran counter to the Court"™s precedents encouraging lower courts to enunciate constitutional principles, the Court nonetheless held that vacatur was appropriate so that the Ninth Circuit"™s merits ruling "" although unreviewable because it was moot "" would not prospectively bind the parties.
The Court did, however, leave intact the Ninth Circuit"™s holding that the government officials were entitled to qualified immunity. While this severance of the two parts of the holding initially seems surprising, the outcome flows logically from the respondent"™s decision not to cross-petition for review of the qualified immunity decision. Interestingly, the disposition on mootness grounds arguably renders the first fourteen pages of the majority opinion advisory""and, as a result, the opinion might well be described as an advisory opinion about advisory opinions.
One important theme that surfaced throughout the majority opinion was that of governmental harm: the Court repeatedly emphasized the injury that a government official suffers when he is bound by a constitutional ruling he is unable to challenge. Acknowledgment of that prospective harm has several implications. Most obviously, it allows the Court to hear the case. According to the majority, the fact that the government official has suffered harm justifies an affirmative answer to both the preliminary question of whether a government official who has won on the merits has Article III standing to appeal or petition for certiorari and the "judicial policy" question of whether the Court may consider a case at the request of a prevailing party.
With respect to the Article III issue, the Court explained that the harm to the government official meets the "case or controversy" requirement because it has an obvious "prospective effect" on the parties. The government official "suffers injury caused by the adverse constitutional ruling" because he must "either change the way he performs his duties or risk a meritorious damages action." So because government officials "" such as those in Camreta "" tasked with performing their official responsibilities suffer harm from adverse decisions on the constitutional merits, they can establish Article III standing.
Likewise, from the perspective of judicial policy, governmental harm justifies placing constitutional pronouncements in qualified immunity cases in a "special category" in which "" unlike the vast majority of other cases "" prevailing parties may appeal adverse constitutional rulings. Once again, the majority noted that a government official who loses on a constitutional question but prevails on qualified immunity grounds is faced with an unappealing dilemma: either he must "acquiesce in a ruling he had no opportunity to contest," or he must blatantly defy the constitutional holding of the court that ruled against him. This dilemma affects not only the government official, but also others who are similarly situated to him; moreover, this dilemma results from the Court"™s explicit invitation for lower courts to make law.
This repeated emphasis on the harm to government officers raises an interesting issue not explicitly addressed in Camreta. By placing so much emphasis on the injury suffered by the government official, the Court created tension with its holding, first articulated in Hewitt v. Helms, that plaintiffs cannot recover attorneys"™ fees under 42 U.S.C. § 1988 when a government defendant is a "prevailing party" as the result of either a ruling on the merits or an immunity determination. So even if the plaintiff wins a favorable decision on the constitutional merits, if the court finds that the defendants are entitled to qualified immunity, then the plaintiff"™s attorneys remain uncompensated.
But the Court"™s framing in Camreta of the concept of a prevailing party calls this distinction into question. In Farrar v. Hobby, the Court explained that "a plaintiff "prevails"™ when actual relief on the merits of his claim materially alters the relationship between the parties by modifying the defendant"™s behavior in a way the directly benefits the plaintiff." If "" as the Court observed in Camreta "" a constitutional ruling has a "significant future effect on the conduct of public officials" and vests the plaintiff with a stake in the constitutional rule, we might expect that such a ruling would "materially alter[] the relationship between the parties" in the manner described in Farrar. Indeed, in its mootness analysis, the Court even describes the constitutional ruling in a qualified immunity case as a "legally consequential decision." From that characterization, it seems a short step to the conclusion that this legally consequential decision has, in fact, materially altered the parties"™ relationship as described in Farrar.
Nothing in Camreta links the Court"™s holding to the interpretation of the attorneys"™ fees provisions in 42 U.S.C. § 1988, but the tension could well infuse future litigation. On the one hand, the Court now readily acknowledges that harm to the government can serve as a justification for allowing judicial review of the constitutional question. On the other hand, for purposes of awarding attorneys"™ fees, it historically has refused to acknowledge that the plaintiff"™s suit has caused the very ruling resulting in that judicial review. Perhaps future litigation will press the Court on this apparent inconsistency.
Finally, Camreta is noteworthy for the number of opinions it generated. Only four other Justices joined Justice Kagan"™s majority opinion (Chief Justice Roberts and Justices Alito, Ginsburg, and Scalia), and there were three other opinions. In addition to the concurring opinion by Justice Scalia and the dissent by Justice Kennedy, both discussed above, Justice Sotomayor filed an opinion concurring in the judgment, which was joined by Justice Breyer. Her opinion noted the difficulty of the appealability question and expressed a preference for deciding the opinion on mootness grounds and going no further. The number of separate opinions reflects both the complexity of qualified immunity doctrine and the increasing division among the Justices on the direction in which that doctrine should evolve.

"This is the latest edition of the multivolume plastic surgery textbook first edited by John M. Converse in 1964. Through the decades, this has remained the gold standard in plastic surgery textbooks. I have always had the most recent edition close to my desk and have used it as an initial reference when I have needed to review a topic. I will continue to use this edition in the same manner.
Plastic surgeons at all stages in their careers can benefit from this book. The coverage of plastic surgery topics remains encyclopedic, and all of the authors are recognized experts in their subject areas.
This edition demonstrates a number of differences from prior editions. The books themselves are slightly larger, and the majority of the artwork is in color, with a uniform style and is of high quality. This edition incorporates changes consistent with our digital age, while maintaining the excellent content that has been the hallmark of this book throughout the years." - Walter Lawrence, MPH, MD (University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics) Doody 5 stars!

UNC scientists describe new protein's role in immune response to pathogens
A new finding by UNC scientists provides a window into how the immune system initially reacts to a virus invader, as well as how a subgroup of proteins plays a role in returning the immune system to a normal surveillance function.
Media contact: Dianne G. Shaw, 919-966-7834, firstname.lastname@example.com
Monday, June 27, 2011
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - The human immune system is a double-edged sword. While it is finely adapted to fighting potentially deadly viruses, such as the H1N1 influenza, the mechanisms it uses to fight pathogens can have negative effects such as inflammatory disorders or autoimmune diseases.
A new finding by UNC scientists provides a window into how the immune system initially reacts to a virus invader, as well as how a subgroup of proteins plays a role in returning the immune system to a normal surveillance function. Their pre-clinical findings were published in the June 24, 2011 online edition of Immunity.
Coy Allen, PhD, first author of the paper and a postdoctoral fellow at UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center, explains, "We knew that proteins called NLRs control the immune system's initial response to an invading pathogen, such as influenza. However, we did not realize that a sub-group of these proteins actually functions to bring an overactive immune response back under control after the pathogen threat has been resolved. Our study showed that a newly identified NLR protein called NLRX1 is capable of shutting down an overreaction by the immune system during an influenza infection."
Allen says, "We worked with influenza because the flu virus is an ongoing global health concern that results in a significant number of deaths each year. In 2009-2010, a new influenza virus emerged and rapidly spread throughout the world, ultimately resulting in the first global influenza pandemic in over 40 years. As part of our studies, we partnered with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and found that NLRX1 also functions in controlling the immune response following 2009 H1N1 influenza virus infection.
In most cases, individuals who die from influenza virus infection suffer from a hyperactive immune response to influenza. Thus, NLRX1 is one of the mechanisms that dampen this hyperactive immune response.
Allen is a postdoctoral fellow in the laboratory of Jenny Ting, PhD. Ting, UNC Alumni Distinguished Professor of Microbiology and Immunology and director of the Inflammation center at UNC, is a pioneer in the understanding of the NLR family of proteins. She is co-leader of UNC Lineberger's immunology program and senior author of the Immunity paper.
Allen explains, "These findings are also relevant to cancer. Several viruses are implicated in cancer, including adenovirus, Hepatitis C Virus, Epstein-Barr virus and Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus. It is likely that NLRX1 may also mediate elements of the host immune response following onco-virus exposure
Allen says that the next steps are to examine other NLR proteins to determine if they too can act as an anti-inflammatory and to further describe how the NLRX1 protein shuts down the immune response at the appropriate time.
Other UNC authors are: Monika Schneider, UNC graduate student;Yu Lei, PhD; Beckley Davis, PhD; Margaret Scull, PhD; Denis Gris, PhD; Kelly Roney, PhD; Albert Zimmerman,PhD; and Raymond Pickles, PhD. Additional authors are Chris Moore, PhD, from Glaxosmithkline, Research Triangle Park, NC; John Bowzard, PhD; Priya Rahjan, PhD;and Suryaprakas Sambhara, PhD, from the influenza division, National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA; and Kathryn Monroe, University of California at Berkley graduate student.
Research funding was provided by grants from the National Institutes of Health and a National Research Service Award.

I have about 8 different series of tutorials at the moment and all of them start me off...everything is fine...emulator is up and running...hello world is ok. I have found ALL of them to get stuck at this one spot.
IDK if it is a change in Eclipse or ADT, but I could really, really use some help!
This is the code I am having an issue with, and this is where the video and the code don't do the same thing.
Video link : Android Application Development Tutorial - 8 - Setting up Variables and Referencing XML ids - YouTube
add = (Button) FindViewByID(R.id.bAdd); sub = (Button) findViewById(R.id.bSub); display = (textview) findViewById(R.id.tvDisplay)
The bAdd, bSub, and tvDisplay do not turn blue and are not referenced or indexed.
I have tried "SAVE ALL", I have tried closing and re-opening it. I have deleted it and re-wrote the code...it still will not find these items. If anyone of you would take a few seconds to help me it would mean a LOT. Thanks in advance.
P.S. I'm a TRUE beginner. I know HTML, CSS, and XML....so please hold my hand and give me a step by step if you can.
Images to my code (I am aware of the capitalization errors and have been told to delete "import android.R;" by others. When I delete it, it automatically comes back when I start to write code again.)

I'll send you an adapter free of charge to test fit against RB's under the condition you post back here you exact findings. I have seen enough "speculation" and I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is. The MSA adapter is no harder to fit, it requires the same amount of work. And that WORK is subject to YOUR installation skills which we can agree varies from person to person.
Yes my instructions may seem like "Brain Surgery" but I am an engineer and deal in facts and exact measurements not shade tree dremel guesstimates. My adapter requires .06" of material to be removed outside of the given dimensional mag standards .90". I have seen cowboy dremel jobs remove more than that. So if we are splitting hairs over .06" then I find this laughable. I pay insurance to cover product liability. You have to submit, in detail, how to install* and packaging information to the underwriter to even be considered for insurance.
*But also in my instructions are pretty pictures for those who don't like to read
When dealing with a firearm that has the potential to kill you, should it fail, where do you compromise your safety? Fact of the matter is I have had ZERO, let me repeat ZERO, rifle failures reported with use of the MSA adapter. Not bashing, just stating a fact. Two installers used dremels and destroyed their rifle. Cause of failure (from an engineers perspective) improper installation and the excessive removal of material. I offered to buy the guys riffle to lay this issue to rest. However he has alternative plans to replace and use the MSA adapter.
Bottom line. I will provide you a safe, precision engineered/precision CNC manufactured rifle accessory constructed from T6061 aluminum. Mil Spec anodized...... that weighs in at 4oz. The instructions to install and pretty pictures to stare at. If you wish to take me up on this offer please email me and reference this post so I will recognize who you are.
And a bit of news while I am here. MSA is releasing a LRBHO for our adapters next month.

Rachel Cooke writes, "Amazon does not set the synapses crackling the way the sight of a pristine shelf of books does: it does not surprise you, nor does it fuel book hunger. You click on what you came for, and then you leave."
One of my most common frustrations in reading evaluations of recent technologies of reading/writing/information is the tendency of almost all parties — technophiles and Luddites alike — to assume that everyone responds to these technologies in the same way: precisely the way the writer does. When Cooke visits Amazon she clicks on what she came for, and then she leaves; but I don't. Amazon doesn't fuel her book hunger; but it fuels mine. (Almost everything does.) Maybe we can't all just get along, but surely we can all stop universalizing our quite individual experiences.)

Opening this Friday is director Len Wiseman's remake of Total Recall. Based on the short story We Can Remember It for You Wholesale by Philip K. Dick, Total Recall stars Colin Farrell in the role originated by Arnold Schwarzenegger. In the film, Farrell stars as Douglas Quaid, a man who is bored with his life (even though he's married to Kate Beckinsale) and seeks to have adventurous memories implanted in his brain. However, after visiting Recall, both friends and family are after him for different reasons. But the big problem is he doesn't know what's real. The film also stars Jessica Biel, John Cho, Bill Nighy, and Bryan Cranston.
The other day I got to speak with Jessica Biel here in Los Angeles. We talked about how the film is non-stop action, what she did to prepare for the role, the practical sets and how it wasn't a CG fest, and what it's like to do so much press. In addition, if you follow me on Twitter you know I always offer our readers the chance to send in questions. When I said I'd be speaking with Biel, people wanted to know if she'd consider playing April O'Neil in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie and why she really dropped out of The Wolverine. Both answers are at the end of the interview. Hit the jump to watch.
Finally, if you missed Len Wiseman telling me the Total Recall Blu-ray would have a directors cut that was 17 minutes longer, you can see that interview here. Also, for a longer interview with Biel, here's my Comic-Con interview and 20 Things to Know about the film from my set visit.
Jessica Biel
- Does she enjoy doing press or is it something she dreads
- Talks about how the film is non-stop action and how she prepared for the shoot
- The practical sets
- Twitter question: Would she consider playing April O'Neil in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie
- Why did she end up not doing The Wolverine

D.C. "Fete Select TV" Crenshaw, NBC Chicago Street Team
Finding the time to play golf is a challenge on many different levels, especially while living in the city. The first challenge is making the tee time early enough to avoid being on the course the entire day. Secondly, the location must not be too far from the city and should have easy access away from major traffic. Thirdly, the golf course itself must be void of a lot of water, trees and brush that will limit the number of balls that I lose. Lastly, but most importantly is the club house food, which should be good enough to make up for bad shots and a high score. The Glencoe Golf Club seems to have at least the latter locked down with their newly renovated restaurant Max's on the Green.
Larry Estes, President and founder of Catering by Max's, opened Max's on the Green with the intentions of making it more than a food venue for golfers. His hopes are to attract locals to dine at Max's on the Green throughout the week, regardless of golfing. The menu consists of breakfast and lunch, but the dinner menu deserves the most attention. Atypical of most club house options dinner entrees include dishes such as the Salmon Filet, Lobster Ravioli, Pork Chop and Skirt Steak. The Greg Norman Kobe Burger was delicious and consists of an 8 oz beef burger grilled to your liking and served on a pretzel bun. Be sure to complement the burger with cheese fries or onion strings. Although Max's is known for their Italian Beef the Grilled Chicken sandwich topped with your choice of BBQ sauce or honey mustard is the way to go. They still have the traditional golf course grub, including sandwiches, salads and wraps and a few dessert menu items. All meals can be enjoyed inside the restaurant or on the outside deck overlooking the ninth hole. Max's transforms into a traditional restaurant setting with waiters and servers only during dinner hours.
The Glencoe Golf Club is located on the North Shore at 621 Westly Rd and is not too far from the city. The public golf course is gorgeous and scenic. For more information about Max's on the Green and the Glencoe Golf Club log onto www.cateringbymaxs.com or www.glencoegolfclub.com.

"Property Liability" (also called "Premises Liability") refers to the liability
of property owners for accidents that occur on their property. If you are injured
while visiting a privately owned business or residence, or on property of the federal,
state or local government you may be able to recover compensation by filing a property
liability lawsuit.
Individuals harmed on another's property may be able to file a property liability
lawsuit where the property owner fails to maintain its property free from "unreasonable
dangers," or fails to adequately warn of unreasonable dangers that it knows about
(or should know about) on its property.
It's always a good idea to consult with a knowledgeable Sacramento property liability
attorney if you have suffered a personal injury and have questions about your next steps.
Property liability lawsuits can occur in a wide variety of instances. Some examples
of property liability cases include:
Similar to most personal injury lawsuits, if you have been injured in a property
liability lawsuit, you may be able to recover numerous types of damages. Typical
damages include items such as:
Several factors affect whether you can recover damages in any type of lawsuit. Where
a personal injury occurs on another's property, one of the main considerations is the status
of the visitor to the property. For example, the duty of the landowner to you may
be different depending on whether you were invited to be on the property (such as
a patron at a store)(called an "invitee"), if you were a social guest (a "licensee"),
or whether you were a trespasser on the property.
Attorney Frederick J. Sette, of Sacramento 's personal injury law firm Sette Law Office, has
helped individuals throughout all of California harmed while on another's property
file property liability lawsuits and recover the compensation they deserve. To learn
more about property liability, or if you or a family member has sustained injuries
while on the property of another, please contact Sette Law Office.

If the appeal fails, CESA will not be able to use most of the capacity of a 30 kilometre, EUR 90.2 million interconnection line, built with these projects in mind. The line already connects a total of 63 MW from four existing operational plant belonging to CESA in the same area. Failure will also mean the end of one of the first orders for Gamesa Eólica's MD 1.5 MW turbine model. Since its split with Vestas, Gamesa has clinched a technology transfer deal with Germany's REpower for sale of the machine in Spain. Párbole also estimates that land owners, mainly municipal authorities, will lose out on EUR 120,000 a year in levies and that EUR 300,000 a year in business tax will also go down the drain, together with the creation of 16 jobs.
Meanwhile, La Mesa Eólica, a regional wind watchdog group, is hoping CESA's appeal will fail. For the Mesa's Carlos Palma, a final rejection "could provide a clearer message to other prospective developers that environmentally sensitive areas are no longer easy prey." Many of the Mesa's officially lodged complaints regarding the three plant were echoed in the environmental department's response to the EIA. Not only are the projects slated for areas of "extreme" environmental sensitivity (main story), the sites are classified as special bird protection areas. What's more, CESA's EIA did not take into account the existence of vulture colonies. The Burgos resolutions also believe the wind stations would have a "critical impact on the landscape" and that together with CESA's existing turbines in the area they would create "a tunnel effect," or "a forest" of turbines.
"What is this forest of turbines?" asks Párbole, saying the term has no place in a technical report. He also adds that the areas have only been proposed for bird protection status since CESA's application, a status they have not yet achieved. Párbole believes the nature of CESA's projects should have exposed them to processing at regional rather than provincial level. This would have taken into account their broader contribution as part of a strategic wind development plan for Castile and León.
Párbole says the resolutions ignore CESA's attempts to reduce impact by swapping the 150, 660 kW machines originally planned for 60, 1.5 MW machines. He regrets there was no recognition of the company's environmental follow-up surveys in its four existing plant in Las Merindades, which reported a sizeable increase in the number of vultures in the area.
Meantime, the Mesa has officially charged CESA before the regional environment department of "blatant covering up and manipulation of data" regarding the bird protection status of the area. The results of both the Mesa's charges and CESA's appeal are currently the object of close scrutiny by the region's many other hopeful wind developers looking for indications of future trends.

El Puerto Mexican Restaurant, best Mexican food in town
The Chinese buffet, China King I think it is.
And the Greene County line. ;)
Gosh, lots of faves. Number one must be fantasizing I am in Mexico City as I watch the pedestrians at Greenbrier Drive and Route 29. Number two is yelling "Nice job, retard" at drivers involved in rear-end collisions in the turn lanes. Third is the post office...they do such great work at such low prices.
Finally, I love the bums begging for money on the medians! Can't some of Albie's finest administer some hickory shampoos on these stinkers?

Trying to lose weight is really one of the hardest things that I'm trying to do in my life. I think it becomes harder because my metabolism is really slow, I love to eat, and I was born fat and has never been really thin my whole life. On top of that, after losing 40 pounds, my body has adjusted to the exercise routine that I have been doing thus I need to push myself further.
Losing weight entails a lot of discipline and self – control, and one of the easiest ways for me is really to take control of what I eat. I need to decide and plan what I eat everyday, it cannot be 'grab anything when hungry' type of plan, I really have to plan and think about it.
Taking control and planning also entails that I cook my own food, because my family loves to eat those unhealthy food.
It is because of this that I came across the blog of Ann Curtis' boyfriend who said that he used to be fat. On his blog he shared a recipe, which I adopted and revised a little base on my taste.
I would like to share this with you now, well, if you like me needs to lose weight.
I'm calling the dish the Weight Loss Chicken Stew…I really don't know whether I can call it Chicken Stew, but since I don't know how it is called, I decided to call it as such.
I don't want to sound 'mayabang' or boastful but I honestly think that this is a good, delicious, and healthy dish.
I say healthy because a lot of the ingredients in the dish are what you call negative calorie food. If you want to know more about negative calorie food please read my previous blog about it by clicking here.
Going back to the Weight Loss Chicken Stew…
The ingredients are the following: Celery, carrots, bell pepper, chicken breast fillet (cut into small cubes), chorizo (this is the only unhealthy ingredient of the dish, so don't put too many of it), onions, chicken stock, paprika, pepper, chick peas (garbanzos).
First, in a pot put a little oil and sauté the onions and chorizo.
Wait until the chorizo has 'sweat' a little, put in the celery, carrots, and bell pepper.
Make sure that you stir it so that the ingredients will mix.
After about 2 minutes you can put some chicken stock or for more flavor you can replace this with spaghetti sauce.
Cover the pot for about 5 minutes then put in the chicken, and a generous amount of paprika. Make sure you stir them together.
About 7 minutes, put in the pepper and chickpeas. Again stir the ingredients together.
Cook for 5 more minutes and it's done! You can put some fresh basil if you want it adds a lot of flavor to the dish.
You notice that I didn't put in any salt or sugar, because the chicken stock or spaghetti sauce and paprika and pepper will gives flavor to the dish, not to mention the chicken breast, chorizo, and the vegetables contributes to making the dish really flavorful.
Also, notice I didn't put any measurements as to how much celery you should put, etc. That is because I always 'play it by ear'. I just make sure that the vegetables are the ¾ part of the dish, the chicken, chick stock, etc, only consists ¼ part of the dish. The chorizo although it adds flavor to the dish should be negligible.
Try it and hope you enjoy the dish. But what I can assure you that it's heavy on the stomach, but the calories shouldn't be that high, plus all the vegetables in the dish are negative caloric vegetables so it should not put on too much calories on your body.

For several years now, users at the Institution where I currently work part-time have expressed a need for a robust and secure connection to the internal network. The internal network actually has some clients that are on private networks and some clients that are Internet-routeable.
Being mostly a Microsoft shop, the options that have been available were not deemed appropriate for various reasons, usually due to security concerns. After being introduced to the problem a few months ago and listening to the concerns surrounding it, I suggested using a boot CD, which would alleviate all of their security concerns. They gave me the go ahead to give it a try. I now have a working prototype and this document describes the process used to create it.

What does the billions of dollars bust of Dubai mean for North Americans? First of all, it is a reminder that our global economy is still fragile and interlinked. Secondly, it is the British banks who were one of the main lenders to the troubled, slowly deflating, glittering and formerly fabulous Dubai. So North America will be relatively unscathed.
Finally, for North American business, a strong message is to get back to basics where you know your clients.
The important question to ask is who is the customer? British banks made assumptions that the Dubai sheiks had oil, that the price of oil would continue to climb and so sure, they would be good to pay back the loans. These bankers did not do sufficient risk analysis.
The other critical question to ask is use of proceeds. Did these bankers ask, "What are you going to use the loan for?"
"Hmmm...let me see, you are going to build a ski resort in the middle of the dessert? How good will the pay back be for that expensive project?"
A little bit of market research would have helped. If a ski resort in a hot place was such a good idea, I'm sure Vegas would have done it already.
I also recommend the last question to ask is if you, the loans executive, personally, would make the loan. This is not in the manual. However, by briefly contemplating whether you would give your own money to the project idea does push your thinking to a more sensible place. This artificial question perhaps, but briefly gives an alignment of interests. Perhaps if the loans executives were asked to assign some of their bonus to the loan repayment, it might have saved the British tax payer (who are now the proud owners of said banks) yet more pain.
For North Americans, check your executive compensation packages. Study how these British bankers were being paid for the amount of loans they made. Were they made into mercenaries, more interested in getting paid a bonus than watching for clear signals the loan might not get repaid?
Now the British tax payer is backstopping these defaults, but they do not have a ski resort in the middle of the desert as compensation.
Dubai should not affect Canada too much. Canadian bank stocks have gone up and we have a commodity backed currency.

Top Docs in WNY 2018
Every January, Spree publishes Castle Connolly's Top Doctors list—as always, we remind our readers that we play no role in the selection of the doctors. Please see Castle Connolly's statement below for their explanation of how the doctors are chosen. We are happy to present this list as a service to our readership, with the understanding that many factors influence medical care choices.
Castle Connolly Medical Ltd. is a healthcare research and information company founded in 1991 by a former medical college board chairman and president to help guide consumers to America's top doctors and top hospitals. Castle Connolly's established nomination survey, research, screening and selection process, under the direction of an MD, involves many hundreds of thousands of physicians as well as academic medical centers, specialty hospitals and regional and community hospitals all across the nation. Castle Connolly's physician-led team of researchers follows a rigorous screening process to select top doctors on both the national and regional levels. Its online nominations process—located at castleconnolly.com/nominations—is open to all licensed physicians in America who are able to nominate physicians in any medical specialty and in any part of the country, as well as indicate whether the nominated physicians is, in their opinion, among the best in their region in their medical specialty or among the best in the nation in their medical specialty. Careful screening of doctors' educational and professional experience is essential before final selection is made among those physicians most highly regarded by their peers. The result—we identify the top doctors in America and provide you, the consumer, with detailed information about their education, training and special expertise in our paperback guides, national and regional magazine "Top Doctors" features and online directories.
Doctors do not and cannot pay to be selected and profiled as Castle Connolly Top Doctors.
Physicians selected for inclusion in this magazine's "Top Doctors" feature may also appear as online at castleconnolly.com, or in in conjunction with other Castle Connolly Top Doctors databases online and/or in print.
